I am super excited by my move to fourth grade language arts. I looooove to teach writing and one of my most favoritest things to do is find that one book that changes a non-reader into a reader.
Yesterday I got to go visit my new school and get a peek into what will be my classroom.
Y'all.
The room is orange.
Sigh.
What most of you don't know is I am a redhead. I just don't do orange. I do lime green and turquoise. This is orange. Not neon, not UT burnt orange, but orange. Think UTSA Roadrunner orange.
This is a crisis, folks!!
What am I going to do? There is one whole wall that is orange. That is the wall with the whiteboard and projector. The cubbies are orange, too.
I asked if I could paint. Nope, not allowed.
My vision of lime green, turquoise, and black went swirling down the toilet.
So I did what any good teacher does - I hit up my friend Google.
And I found this.

Perfect, right? I will use white fabric for the backing for my boards and I can keep my lime green and turquoise accents.
Crisis Averted. Life is good.
